I have seen about everything in a combination of,Viet Nam,
participating in a Labor Union Representative race,and having friends on both sides of the law,when running my motorcycle
business.It is therefore,fairly hard to shock me.I thought that I had seen about every dirty tactic to win.I heard on the news this morning,that Saddam Hussien has ordered U.S.Military uniforms.
He supposedly,has instructed his trusted troops,to put them on
and perform attrocities against the people of Iraq,so that they will hate the U.S. even more.Now I am suprised.Has anyone ever seen tactics this bad? Irish

Irish, While distasteful in the extreme, this is entirely in keeping with the behavior of a regime that uses poison gas on its political dissidents (Kurd in the north and Shiites in the south).

Irish, you are talking about a man (and I use that term very loosely) that, when his brothers left him and went into exile, he did everything he could to get them back with him. When they returned, he killed them.

Saddam Hussein phoned President George W. Bush. "I

ROFLMAO Lilith!
And, to be perfectly honest on your topic Irish.......I am pretty impressed that Saddam came up with this tactic. On the other hand I am equally impressed that we found out about it and can spread the word before any harm is blamed on us!
This is the new wave in propaganda.....and it might have worked in the eyes of other countries that despise us........IF it weren't discovered and divulged. Truth be known.....even though it is a known fact now.....if it is still used.....some will still believe it to be true!

Lixy, what I've determined is that people tend to believe what fits their agenda. If they want to believe that the war is wrong they will blame America, and vice versa.

I'd seen some newsreels lately about Desert Storm. This sad excuse for humanity had odered his troops to capture 50 American soldiers to use as human shields for his tanks. Anybody willing to be that ruthless is capable of anything I would think. His cowardice is further displayed by his sleeping in different civilian homes all during that campaign. I'd love to see him "Surgically" removed without any harm to others but that hasn't been an option apparently. I'm no warmonger but to quote my old Grandpappy.." the bastard needs killin!"

They actually had one opportunity to snipe him, but the gentleman with the gun wasn't given the green light.
'Tis a huge shame the world must still suffer his insanity.

Not at all surprised Irish... and I am certain that the man has other plans in the works that are worse... that man is evil.

It seems like thier will always be an unlimited supply of evil in the world, not so many years ago Iran was the focus of all evil so th U.S. decides to try step in by supporting Saddam and his war efforts against Iran, Now when everyone gets a real living color view of the "man" he is seen for what he really is, I do not wish bad things on anyone but he (Saddam) needs to captured and turned over to the Shiites and the Kurds and let them deal with him in the most horrible way.
